Macy’s, a giant retail showroom chain specializing in high-end garments among cash rich consumers all over USA has been reported to be organizing a grand finale of United States of America Independence Day celebration in New York every year for some decades now.
I was also one of the spectators of this grand show on this day from a cruise parked on the waters of Hudson River. A view of the skyscrapers on Manhattan from the river is a sight one can never forget easily. How many colors and shapes of buildings glittering and shining on both sides of the river (New York city on the one side and Jersey town on the other) while creating a feeling of ecstasy among the visitors and witnesses? A mesmerizing event was displaying a view of the heaven on earth indeed.
Fireworks had a theme and pattern of their own as designed and executed by those master men sitting and supervising from their respective boats and ships – a minimum of five at least in number. What a variety! What a rhythm? What a combination of colors! What shapes and how many designs & at what designated heights & what a range and richness and selection of colors for various objects on display? A mindboggling exercise and massive planning with a huge expense at the cost of Macy’s is an admirable private event. Hats off to the thought and action on the part of this company for such a wonderful celebration.
How I wish Mukesh Ambani of Reliance Group to undertake a similar venture and underwrite a similar sort of annual event fully from his company on the Arabian Sea-front near the Necklace of Mumbai Marine Drive on the occasion of India's Independence day i.e. 15th of August!
